The ground affected by the explosion all sank down, revealing things buried underground. It was then that everyone realized that the world enveloped by the blood dragon tree had no ground at all. What they had seen before was all a ground supported by countless corpses and the roots of the blood dragon tree.
Even more terrifying were the things below. This underground turned out to be an incredibly huge blood pool, soaking countless corpses inside. The blood dragon tree grew in the center of the blood pool, absorbing the power from below the blood pool to constantly grow. The blood-like roots branching out like veins were enough to make one's scalp tingle.
"Is this the blood dragon tree?!" as if questioning, the recent explosion also brought them back to their senses, looking at this blood-colored giant tree with a sense of horror.
"We were all influenced just now. This devilish tree incites us to fight each other to seize our powers. Let's destroy this devil tree together!" Someone immediately reacted, realizing that this thing was not a treasure but a malevolent tree!
"Let's go!" Some people didn't want to get involved and immediately turned to run, only to find that the surrounding space was completely locked by a force.
"You all saw it too. If we don't get rid of this devil tree, we won't be able to leave. Are you all really willing to stay here and wait for death?"
"Gurgle Gurgle—!"
Just when many cultivators hesitated, ripples occurred in the blood pool, and the boiling blood surged up, entwining around the vines of the blood dragon tree, turning into a blood-colored vine dragon.
"Roar—!" With a roar, the blood dragon spewed out a blood-colored dragon breath towards the cultivators, sweeping with overwhelming power.
"Ahhhh—!" The power in a single breath was extraordinarily strong, causing a group of saints to be hit one after another.
Any cultivator touched by the blood-colored dragon breath melted into blood foam and fell into the blood pool below.
"Be careful, Yue!" Bexia sensed something was wrong, pulled Yue over, and took out a divine shield to protect herself.
"Boom—!" Despite this, Bexia was still sent flying by the huge force. The blood dragon was undoubtedly an immortal god, and the ability to withstand the power of an immortal god within this small space was significantly higher than the outside world.
"Imperial Fire Incineration!"
Scarlet flames descended from the sky, each like a meteor shower, all crashing towards the blood dragon. Following the sound, Bexia looked and met the gaze of the younger version of Luo Cailing, who gave Bexia a look of warning before rushing towards the blood dragon tree.
"Big brother, are you guys okay?" Luo Ningxian ran over at this time, her palm emitting a faint light as she healed the injuries of the two.
"We're fine!" Just as Bexia finished speaking, Yue bit his neck, revealing that the previous battle had consumed him more than he let on.
"Alright, now I have something to do..." Bexia shrugged, looking helpless, feeling like he was just Yue's mobile "power bank"!
"Was the explosion just now caused by you and Ayoka?" Bexia asked Luo Ningxian.
"Yes! But it was Ayoka who discovered it first, I just helped plant some bombs!" Luo Ningxian stuck out her tender tongue playfully.
"I didn't expect the true face of this blood dragon tree to be like this..."
"This is not the blood dragon tree at all!" Yue descended from Bexia at this moment, wiped his lips, and said.
"Recovered?!" Bexia gave Yue a disapproving look.
"About seventy to eighty percent..." Yue glanced at Bexia, as if to say that sucking his blood was a sign of respect, and it's not something she'd do for just anyone?
"Can Ayoka defeat that blood dragon?" Bexia watched Luo Cailing battling the blood dragon, appearing to be in a stalemate.
"I'm not sure! Ayoka said she's holding off the blood dragon for us to go and destroy that tree!" Luo Ningxian stretched her neck to look and then turned to Bexia, saying, "She said unless we destroy that tree, we can't leave!"
"Oh! Then let's take action?"
"Not we, but you guys. I'll stay here to watch over Ayoka. I'll help her if something goes wrong!" Luo Ningxian pointed at Bexia and Yue.
"Alright then!" Bexia inquired, "How should we destroy that devil tree? I don't think a regular attack will do."
"Use this, it's a good thing Ayoka collected, stolen from Dad's lab... No, taken out!" Luo Ningxian seemed to have let something slip, quickly correcting herself.
"What is this?" Bexia asked, looking at the transparent test tube Luo Ningxian brought out, containing some green liquid, probably just a mouthful.
"I can't remember what it's called, something like... Venom No. 3. Just needs to be scattered on the target, even eternal-level divine beings can't resist!" Luo Ningxian warned, "Be careful, this thing is very destructive!"
"Is that true?" Bexia looked at the green liquid in the test tube, somewhat skeptical of Luo Ningxian's description of its power.
"Why would I lie to you? Dad's research product was disliked by Grandpa for being too destructive. This thing can definitely destroy that devil tree!" Luo Ningxian said firmly.
"Do we sprinkle it on the devil tree?"
"Definitely!" Luo Ningxian brought out a mechanical hand crossbow and loaded the test tube into Bexia's hand, saying, "Be careful, the two of you!"
"No problem! We'll make sure the mission is completed!" Bexia smiled, storing away the crossbow and pinching Luo Ningxian's face.
"Wahh, don't touch my face randomly!"
